O Saki, illuminate our cup with the light of wine

O musician, say that the world's affairs have turned to our desire

In the wine cup we have seen the reflection of the beloved's face

O you who are unaware of the pleasure of our perpetual drinking

Never dies the one whose heart is brought to life by love

Our permanence is recorded in the world's journal

So much is the coquetry and grace of the cypress-statured ones

That our pine-walking cypress comes to display

O wind, if you pass by the garden of friends

Be sure to deliver our message to the beloved

Say, why do you deliberately forget our name

The time will come when you won't remember our name

Intoxication looks lovely in our charming beloved's eyes

That's why they've given our reins to intoxication

I fear it won't profit on the Day of Judgment

The Sheikh's lawful bread versus our forbidden water

Hafez, scatter tear-drops from your eyes

Perhaps the bird of union will aim for our trap

The green sea of the sky and the crescent ship

Are drowned in the bounty of our Haji Qavam
